I am a Southern Californian born and raised watercolor artist who loves to paint nature. I make my own environmentally conscious ink from food scraps and copper hash. My art journey started with photography and has grown into painting. I realized after my first commissioned artwork that I can transform my pictures into paintings. I love using photos of succulents and flowers as inspiration for my watercolors. Creating art is my happy place and it’s my meditation; while I paint, I listen to my favorite music. My goal in life is to spread love and joy through beautiful artwork. I love teaching watercolor painting, and I am currently negotiating a licensing deal while still doing custom work.
